The official memoir of the iconic rocker Prince will be available this holiday season. Prince's publishing agent Esther Newberg revealed that the first draft of the late icon's biography will be published by the end of 2018.

​Prince was "committed to the book project" and worked together with author Dan Piepenbring, personally handwriting over 50 manuscript pages. Reproductions of his longhand pages might be included in the book, according to Newberg.
​
The project was originally announced about a month before Prince's death, with a tentative title of The Beautiful Ones. Publishers described it as being “an unconventional and poetic journey through his life and creative work.”

One of the most iconic American sports cars is getting a hybrid. Ford Motor Co. has announced that the Mustang Hybrid will be available in 2020.

The Mustang has long been known for it's power. The basic Mustang is already a force to reckon with, the GT model is a V8-powered, rear-wheel-drive beast, and the upcoming GT500 is promising to bring more than 700 horse-power with it's engine. Now the company is looking to make their classic muscle car embrace the trend to go green.

​While the hybrid will be more efficient, it won't be boring, still catering to performance enthusiasts with "V8 levels of power and even more torque." The company hopes that this will unlock more of the Mustang's potential while also broadening its overall appeal. Ford is also looking to add an all-wheel drive and fully electric model in the near future.

Yeezy breaks the internet with some exciting news.......
​
Since the release of his 7th studio album The Life Of Pablo back in 2016, Kanye West has been relatively quiet in regards to music. Other than being involved in news pertaining to his wife Kim Kardashian, we haven't really seen too much of Ye in the forefront.

Earlier this month, Kanye has been spotted with Rick Rubin in Wyoming -- which lead many people to assume he was working on an album. In addition, it's been noted that Ye & Rubin were accompanied by the likes of Nas, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, King Louie, The Dream & Mike Dean. Now, it's safe to say that all of the assumptions have been spot on and we will be blessed with not only one, but TWO albums from the Chicago living legend -- one collaborating with Kid Cudi.

​Starbucks (SBUX) said it would close all of its U.S. stores on the afternoon of May 29 for racial-bias education for its employees, the company said in a statement.

The coffee giant has come under pressure following the arrest of two black men last Thursday in one of its Philadelphia stores. The store manager whose phone call resulted in the arrests has left the company.

Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson apologized over the weekend, calling the arrests “reprehensible” and offered to meet the two men involved to give a face-to-face apology.
​
“I’ve spent the last few days in Philadelphia with my leadership team listening to the community, learning what we did wrong and the steps we need to take to fix it,” Johnson said in a statement. “While this is not limited to Starbucks, we’re committed to being a part of the solution. Closing our stores for racial bias training is just one step in a journey that requires dedication from every level of our company and partnerships in our local communities.”

Founder and executive chairman Howard Schultz has also traveled to Philadelphia with other senior leadership to meet with community leaders and Starbucks employees.

“The company’s founding values are based on humanity and inclusion,” Schultz said. “We will learn from our mistakes and reaffirm our commitment to creating a safe and welcoming environment for every customer.”

On the afternoon of Tuesday, May 29, nearly 175,000 Starbucks employees from 8,000 stores and those working in the corporate office will go through training “designed to address implicit bias, promote conscious inclusion, prevent discrimination and ensure everyone inside a Starbucks store feels safe and welcome.”

The company said the curriculum will involve experts, including Bryan Stevenson, founder and executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative; Sherrilyn Ifill, president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund; Heather McGhee, president of Demos; former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder; and Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League.

Going forward, this training will be part of the company’s onboarding process for new hires.
​
The only other time Starbucks closed all of its locations at once was in 2008 for espresso training.
